    I have a credit repair company and ran ppc campaigns with google and yahoo. Problem is that due to the cometition I end up paying over $2 per click. I am thinking about starting a campaign with super pages,
    Any other recomendadtions?

    have you tried MSN AdCenter? I've found them to be cheaper and their conversion rate to be the highest (in some cases).

    No experience w/ Super Pages....doesn't hurt to try it I guess.

    The field "credit repair" is very competitive, you can try out geo-location targeting few less competitive keywords from specific location continuing with Adword and monitor the performance.

    Yep credit repair especially for people new at marketing is a tough one. If you can figure it out then you are going to be pulling in the money. MSN AdCenter is good but a lot of times the traffic isn't as high of quality as Google Adwords. But then again you pay $2.50 per click with adwords and .60 cents a click with MSN.

    At $2.50 adwords doesnt make much sense. Anyone has any other ideas on how to market credit repair effeciently online , keeping the competition in mind?

    I too used to do financial based sites (its where the adsense money is at) and I used to use several PPC companies that are considered 2nd tier companies... The cost per click was way less then Google, MSN, or Yahoo.

    here is a list of ones i've used in the past for traffic...
    7search.com
    Adengage.com
    Clicksor.com
    Revenuepilot.com
    Searchfeed.com
    Mamma.com
    Bidvertiser.com
    Miva.com
    Looksmart.com
    Ask.com
    Search123.com

    those are just to name a few i'm sure if you do a Google search for 2nd tier PPC companies you'll find alot more..
    hope the list helps..

    You can also try advertising in other people's email lists... like paid sponsored reviews. If you are able to find the right email list, the return can be enormous.
